Today we only raise our eyes from the dog shit-covered, icy sidewalk if we want to avoid icicles falling on us.
It would be worth a try, however, and koarcok.hu tells us why. The contributors of this site have been walking around in Budapest with their eyes open since the April, 2006: they discover and share with us the stone faces staring from the buildings. There are images of such faces from other European cities as well, proving that it's often well worth looking up and not just at our feet.
